Question 794120: I need help. I have a question on a homework page and it says "Write about a real-world situation tht could be represented by the equation 5(x+2)=5x" I don't understand it, please help! Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "Write about a real-world situation that could be represented by the equation 5(x+2)=5x"
:
I don't know how you could, simplify this by dividing both sides by 5, you get:
x + 2 = x
That couldn't represent a real or an unreal situation
